LOVE, love it!
I’m not normal a red lippie person, but I NEED this!
woah, prices in GBP£, thumbs up 😀
It is only available outside of the U.S.
Will you do swatches of the Illamasqua Throb collection, pretty please ?
love that lip color. wish sephora carried the 100 foundation. anyone have feedback on the illamasque liquid/cream foundation? it sounds like a bottle covers well & lasts forever.
I love that promotional shot, I wouldn’t wear make up like that out but I do love it for the sales pitch. It reminds me of Alice in Wonderland.
i agree! the promo is adorable.
I hope they decide to sell it at Sephora; my December Illamasqua package has been delayed overseas because of bad weather and I don’t know if I can wait yet again.
I absolutely adore that promo shot. Stunning!
is that a brown nail varnish?
if so, the cream and that one look like chocolates!! 😀 which makes sense if it is a valentines’ collection.
great collection image there… looks a bit retouched to hell but the idea is still phenomenal 🙂
It’s a matt black x
I love it but the lipstick was already sold out on the website 24 hours after the launch, and I’m afraid they won’t re-stock it, will they?
Too bad we don’t get illamasqua in here…
Her eyes are stunning but the effects around her lips are throwing me off.
The image reminds me of the movie “V for Vendetta”!
yeah, also has a bit of alice in wonderland, I’m thinking it’s not your day to day makeup but lots of potential for interesting touches like an detail or accent here or there.
must be building on some MUFE dracula contest pics, I’m having a lot of ideas
Does anyone have any idea if or when this collection will be available in the US at Sephora?
I love Illamasqua… I lova all this crazy things in Illamasqua.
gotta love good advertising i dont need any of that but from that pic i want it all
The first picture is absolutely gorgeous!
I can’t wait to buy all the red items from this!
I get the feeling this is catering to Valentine’s Day. ^_^
I wanna see if the red lip colors have blue or yellow undertones
The price for Illamasqua in Europe is great. I want the lip gloss…looks stunning.
aaaaaaahhh i want the lip glossssssssss!!!!!!!
is that katy perry?
Nope!
Want….but I need to see swatches first before I invest that much moola.
Oh Christine, don’t tempt me! Illamasqua recently pulled out from Ireland, closing all their counters 🙁 I’m devastated! This looks beautiful
Oh darn, this isn’t going to be available in the U.S.? What a shame, I love a good red lipstick…
Love this. Not the name, kinda awkward to have “you make me throb”. Probably because I’m American hahah
Plus a “rich cream” colored nail varnish named Load…ew.
i thought the name was amusing. kind of like NARS orgasm or urban decay’s drug related product names.
i wish i could get into illamasqua. i tried liking their products but either the color was way off (their blush) or the formula was too drying (their lipsticks).
Fear not Americans, according to the website you can still buy all of the Throb Collection goodies online. Love love LOVE the promo shot, but I have so many red Illamasqua lipsticks and don’t wear nail polish…think I’ll pass on this one!
Has anyone else from the US ordered from their website- and if so, do you know how much shipping is? I know that their items are cheaper ordered online at Illamasqua.com than from Sephora.com, but not sure if the shipping is worth it.
I’m not too excited about the collection, but the promo photo is EXCELLENT! 😀
I have on Sangers lippy atm and it is stunning!!
Uh, wow. The “Load” nail polish totally makes me giggle like a schoolgirl. Ewwwwwwwww!
That photo is gorgeous, and begs the question, why isn’t this collection called Queen of Hearts?
probably not to get it confused w UD AIW?
Haha, I love the names. Such a European/British humor, I adore it. And the collection is gorgeous, I will definitely try to get the lipgloss and the red nail varnish.
Oh wow… the white colored nail polish is called Load? Ha! I’m really liking the promo image though and I’m not usually into them.
That is a really striking image. Gorgeous. Although I’m a little disappointed to see that they didn’t included the complexion colors in the collection.
Red lips and red nails. Ok, where is the news? I know that creating something original for each collection is difficult… but I think this kind of red is the most used, most duped, most boring colour in the entire story of make up. Moreover, I HATE it.
I am super angry at Illamasqua I wanted to see how much the difference between pounds and US dollars before I confirmed my payment through paypal for the Load Nail Varnish… BUT that didnt happen instead of letting me see my final payment and click confirm it went straight to the confirmation payed saying I payed 80 DOLLARS FOR THREE NAIL VARNISHES. Thats not even the worst part they refused to cancel my order and give me a refund…. Now they say that I need to send it back to them when I recieve it which is really annoying because I would have to pay a HUGE shipping fee!!! So I am officially stuck with 3 bottles of Load nail varnish LOL. I am just mainly angry at the service…never buying from them ever again… I feel very silly because I know I could of googled for conversions of pounds to US dollars but I was expecting that paypal would be the same. Just shocked to see such poor service from such a great brand =(
is this similar to russian red? can u please help – i want a deeper red lipstick than the brightness of russian red – something like this pic

how abt this – if not im looking for a maroon red basically rather than a red-red
Try MAC Dark Side!
I did buy the lipstick called Sangers, only because I walked into the Illamasqua shop in London and asked them what red lipstick did they recommend for my skintone, and the MUA in there said ‘The new one called Sangers’. I did try it on in the shop with my own MAC Mahogany lip pencil, which is one of my faves, and it was perfect.
I bought the Sangers lipstick and wore the lipstick all day and got nothing but good glances from men and women, double takes, and a lot of respect.
do you know if this collection will be sold on the sephora website at all? thank you!
I believe so!
This picture makes me want all of these products. I love it!!!!!
I really want to get this collection. I need to do a few final projects for my cosmetic and make up courses that I am working on. I think that this would help me get all of my projects done. I am excited to try this out.
